Supply to SEZ is treated as export and therefore, the unit may utilize the credit for payment of excise duty on DTA sale or claim refund under rule 5 of the Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004. Where the goods are supplied to traders, the further course of action would be determining factor to decide the refund provisions. If the export by the trader is being made in the name of manufacturer being supporting manufacturer, the company can claim refund of cenvat credit.
